Overview

About The Elms

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

The Elms is a detached house in Sutterton, Boston, Boston (PE20 2LX). It has a recorded floor area of 169 m² (around 1819 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 169 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£220/sq ft) was about 112.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £400,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
